Persona5: The Phantom X carries over a lot of similar mechanics from Persona 5 that make this game just as much of a time investment. With both completion data and gacha pulls to worry about, it's important to save and protect your data as much as possible, and that's where account binding comes in.
Along with account binding, Persona5: The Phantom X can be played on both PC and mobile, with many players wondering if they can play the same account on both devices to always be making progress in the same place. Here's how to bind your account, and also, if the game has cross-progression.
7 Longest Persona Games, Ranked
The Persona games are lengthy commitments, with the longest games in the series requiring dozens, if not over one hundred hours of play to complete.
How to Bind Your P5X Account
Whenever you log into Persona5 Phantom X for the first time, you'll be given a guest account with a randomly generated guest code. At that moment, your save data will only exist on your account, and deleting the game without binding your account will lose that data forever. To bind your account, go to the title screen for the game and click on the, "User" button along the top right of the screen. Click User then go to Linked Account to be given three options depending on your device:
- Steam
- Apple
- Link Account
The first three are self-explanatory; you can choose to log in using one of those methods to start a new account, or link your current guest account to one of those methods and convert that guest account into an account from that method. The final option, Link Account, lets you create a password for your current guest account and make it a permanent account, not requiring a login from any of the first three methods.
If you choose the Link Account option, make sure you save your account number, the randomly generated guest code, and your new password somewhere else, as those two things will let you log into this account from any device.
The 10 Rarest Enemies In The Persona Series
The Persona series is filled with interesting enemies. But these are the ones you'll run into the least.
Does Persona 5 X Have Cross-Progression?
Yes, you can log into an existing account from any device and pick up right where you left off. There is no major difference between playing on mobile or PC, so it mostly comes down to which you prefer in the moment.
Logging on with a different device will forcefully log you out of another if you happen to already be in-game.
How To Log In on Another Device
When logging on to an unlinked device, click the User button in the top right of the screen. Click the bottom option, "Other Login methods," to get the same binding options as now login through. Just log in through whichever option you bound your account to and log in to the game to pick up where you left off. If a guest account was already made on your new device, click the Switch button along the right side of the User Center screen to get sent back to the title screen. Click the User button again to see the "other login methods" option and log into your account.
